From the Archives:

Oceanic sound
Remands to me
The wisdom of the deep.

Resurgent pound
A heark'ning sea
In surfeit at its neap

A mere abound
Of privity
Waves aphorisms leap.

Reflections found
Imploringly
Beseech that I might reap

My quests expound
In verity ~
Percipience my Keep.

Perchance were you a lexicographer in a previous life?
Seriously... what can you say except you are at a higher level than us mere mortals with your poetry... I enjoyed the poem very much...

Thank you, thank you, my very dear friends...

Balladeer - You're a dol-phi-n-ever criticizing me.... (two points fer me)

Tim - Are you saying I have a case of that dreaded WordiNess???

Izzy - Watchout - Yer halo is falling off - I'll get the velcro...

deVine - I always knew you were a participant... um.. percipient.... teamwork - yeah - that's it...

one voice - good thing you're a poet and not a ventriloquist, eh? -

wayoutwalt - Insanity reigns - Remember that... hehe...

WhenDovesCry - Give 'em a tissue and a good poem.... Nice to have you here

sea_of_okc - Me too... Sometimes I think I've written too many, and then another one just sort of happens...

ac - Thanks - Turmoil and I don't get along well

Thanks guys - I love you all...
